Even had some time to suspend work on the construction of the snowmobile and “to consider” the entire structure again — on paper. In the end, some decisions were not only unconventional (maybe not new, but considerably forgotten and not found in modern machines), and some original. Note design features.

According to experts, in the mass production of orbital engine due to the simple design (only 10 moving parts) will cost many times cheaper motors used in the automotive industry at the present time”. This information was placed in the newspaper “Pravda” on January 20, 1973.
